Yeah, well, it's always sunny, so you don't have a day-night cycle or seasonality or weather.

Right.

and you get about 30% more power in space because you don't have atmospheric attenuation of the power.

The net effect is solar is five times more, any given solar panel will do five times more energy in space than on the ground.

Like building...

AI data centers in space?

I think the case, it's a no-brainer for building AI, solar-powered AI data centers in space.

Because as you mentioned, it's also very cold in space.

If you're in the shadow, it's very cold in space, just three degrees Kelvin.

So you just have, you have solar panels facing the sun, and then a radiator that's pointed away from the sun.

So it has no sign incidents.

And then it's just cooling.

It's a very efficient cooling system.

So net effect is that the lowest cost place to put AI will be space.

And that'll be true within two years.

Maybe three.

Three at the latest.

I don't know what's going to happen in 10 years, but the rate at which AI is progressing,

I think we might have AI that is smarter than any human by the end of this year.

And I would say no later than next year.
